LeRobot's human-in-the-loop data collection guide runs trained policies on the bimanual OpenArm follower by default.
“> The provided commands default to `bi_openarm_follower` + `bi_openarm_mini`.”

The guide names this policy for the lerobot-rollout dagger command on bi_openarm_follower (RTC inference (--inference.type=rtc)).
“**With RTC for large models (Pi0, Pi0.5, SmolVLA):**”
